Smart capital for IP-rich start-ups
Our early-stage investments are designed to help deep-tech start-ups build the strongest foundations. Our financial investment is enhanced with IP expertise and practical business support in a tried and tested combination that helps companies to thrive, add value and grow.
More than just a financial investment.
When we’ve invested financially, it’s only natural that we want to see a company succeed. Yes, we invest seed capital, but that’s not all.
We also bring:
Deep intellectual property expertise
Our investment managers are intellectual property experts who have extensive experience working with early-stage start-ups – and who are fascinated by new technologies.
Our honest, practical advice will help you develop a robust intellectual property strategy that protects your market and adds value to your business.
We will also help to implement that strategy, from proof of concept to IPO.
A network of excellent business support
We also have a wealth of experience working with (and in) tech start-ups. We can draw on that experience and our trusted contacts to bring you first-rate advice and services including:
commercial and ’go-to-market’ strategy,
strategic marketing,
competitor monitoring,
technological expertise, problem-solving and collaborative team mentoring,
financial ‘CFO’ oversight, and
developing communications to attract future investment.
Work with us
With us by your side, you can build the strongest foundations possible and add real value to your start-up.
The companies we work with are…

… developing exciting technologies with patent opportunities
We really love emerging technologies! We specialise in working with companies in MedTech, diagnostics, consumer electronics, robotics, automation, Internet of Things, transport, renewables and clean tech.
-
… at the pre-seed or seed stage and are based in Europe
We’re primarily interested in early-stage companies based in the Nordics, UK and Western Europe (but if you think you’re a good fit from elsewhere in the world, we’d still love to hear from you).
-
… led by highly motivated teams who are open to advice and support
We supplement your team’s existing capabilities with expertise that will help you grow, especially in topics such as strategic intellectual property, finance, commercialisation and engineering.

If you or your company are interested in investing in early-stage deep tech through our team, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re also interested to hear from other funds looking to strategically grow their portfolio in this sector. If you feel that our IP-enhanced capital would be a beneficial addition to what you offer, get in touch.
CASE STUDY
“The team at Immetric brings immense expertise with an inherent understanding of the challenges and opportunities that our unique technology offers… by ensuring proper technology protection, we add clear value to the company.”
- Chassis Autonomy CEO, Peter Johansson
In Spring 2022 we made an investment in Chassis Autonomy, an automotive start-up based in Sweden which develops fail-operational steering systems for autonomous cars. We’re really excited by their technology and their vision!
As steer-by-wire and autonomous vehicles become mainstream in the next five years, steering systems that keep people safe in all circumstances will become standard. We believe Chassis Autonomy’s early start and impressive patent-protected technologies will allow them to set the industry standard for fail-operational steering products. The team continues to innovate hard and, with our support, is protecting its IP along the way.
